Bible thoughts – Matthew 6:19-34

Here we are at the end of Matthew chapter 6 – Matthew 6:19-34 and we find more on where we choose to live our lives. It is the battle of the mind. Will be choose to focus on everyday needs, on the thing we think will make our lives happier? On the miseries that don’t?

Or will we stop and raise our eyes, our hearts, our lives to heaven? Its all a matter of perspective. Jesus says Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be. So surely if our desire if for Him, then that’s where our treasure will be – and all the rest will no longer be a burden to us:

The world saidYou are not who you say you areYou have died a criminals deathBut he says: it was my life to lay down and it’s my life to take back up.

The world saysWhat has god ever done for us?But he saysLook how far out I was prepared to pushThe boat out for you

The world saysI can make it on my ownHe saysThat’s not what you were made for

And you wonder why you only everSee glimpses of a half broken heavenInstead of the perfect gloryYou were made for

We say Look at all the messHe saysLook instead at my Forever lovingDeeply compassionatePerfection.
